WWE has taken to social media and its website to announce an injury to a major SmackDown star following last night’s episode of the show.
The show closed last night with Jey Uso turning heel by pledging allegiance to Universal Champion Roman Reigns by launching an attack on Daniel Bryan including a splash from the top rope through the announce table.
WWE has confirmed injuries to Bryan, writing:
Following his match with Jey Uso on Friday Night SmackDown, Daniel Bryan was evaluated in the WWE trainer’s room, complaining of back and lower abdominal pain.
WWE Medical recommended Bryan be transported to a local medical facility where multiple imaging tests were performed and revealed a bruised kidney and multiple strains and contusions throughout his thoracic and lumbar spine.
Bryan was released from the facility last night and is now convalescing at home.
The attack took place after Uso had beaten Bryan in a qualifying match for the SmackDown men’s Survivor Series team – he joins Kevin Owens on the team who beat Dolph Ziggler. Reigns will face Raw’s WWE Champion Randy Orton.
